The odds are ...

Apparently it’s never too early to think about next year’s Super Bowl. The Colts are the early favorites — at 13-2— to win Super Bowl XLV, according to ProFootballTalk.com.
The Saints are tied for third with the Patriots at 10-1, while the Chargers are at 8-1.
Gee, no mention of the Lions?
Ah, yes. The Lions are tied with the Browns, the Chiefs, the Raiders, the Rams and the Buccaneers with the longest odds on the board at 100-1.
Sounds about right.
